About Me:

Mechanical Engineer and Private Pilot, trying to spread out into RC and UAVs (if my wallet can bear it.)


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

First objective: basic fixed wing, electrically-powered UAV that can nav to multiple closely-spaced waypoints (within 1000 yards of each other,) take off, and land autonomously, maybe taking some photos along the route. Second objective: build a small (25-class) electric UAV similar to the Convair XFY-1, and add the ability to translate horizontally in any direction while in hover. Main Objective: Have fun and learn a few things about airplane design and control systems.

I have been looking at the failsafe mux for use in a future project, but I have a question before I buy it...can I run the inputs and outputs in reverse (i.e., use the inputs as outputs and vice versa?) I'm trying to switch a single set of PWM…
